Top-ranked on the AI Index, Google’s new frontier model automates vulnerability discovery, exploit validation, and secure code patching
Google has officially announced Gemini 4 Carbon, its latest frontier AI model following the release of Gemini 4 Argon.
Marking a major leap forward for the Gemini ecosystem, Carbon lands at the #1 spot on the updated v5.0 Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index with a score of 59, showcasing massive gains in complex coding, multi-step agentic workflows, and an unprecedented focus on cybersecurity defense.
Carbon is engineered to span the entire cybersecurity defense lifecycle—from vulnerability detection and risk validation to root-cause remediation. It notched record-breaking benchmark scores.
Vulnerability discovery and risk validation:
88.2% on SEC-bench Pro, autonomously finding complex flaws in real-world software.
54.8% on ExploitGym, assessing whether vulnerabilities are actively exploitable to help teams prioritize patches.
Root-cause patching:
71.0% on CWE-bench, translating validated findings directly into secure code patches. Google’s Chrome team noted that Carbon generated high-quality security patches more than 10 times better than competing frontier models.
Advanced agentic & coding proficiency:
Designed to manage complex, long-running engineering chores over multi-day spans, Carbon significantly minimizes hallucinations, fabrications, and task overreach/under-service.
Enhanced safety and guardrails:
Google tightened safety mechanisms alongside the model’s increased capability. Internal testing demonstrated that Carbon brought successful cheating attempts on Terminal-Bench down to effectively 0%, while maintaining stricter adherence to scope and project constraints.
Access and gated rollout:
Unlike broader consumer rollouts, initial access to Carbon is strictly gated. It is rolling out to a curated subset of cyber defenders and trusted partners through Google’s Fairwind Program, with wider availability planned later.
Introductory pricing:
When accessibleon input tokens and $10 per million output tokens (with cached input tokens receiving a 95% discount), matching the pricing tier of its Argon counterpart
